Paperback / softback

Description

A beautiful pictorial souvenir commemorating the life of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II. From her birth in London in 1926 to the celebration of her Platinum Jubilee in 2022, this touching tribute looks back at the life of Britain's longest reigning monarch. Charting the courtship and marriage of the Queen's parents, King George VI and Elizabeth Bowes-Lyon, the birth of the Queen and her sister Margaret Rose, the abdication crisis of 1936, the royal family's role in World War II and the untimely death of the Queen's beloved father in 1952, this beautifully illustrated book chronicles Her Majesty's transition from princess to one of the most iconic and beloved modern heads of state. Also covering the coronation, the birth of the Commonwealth, the 'annus horribilis' of 1992 and the advent of the modern royal family, historians and royal watchers - including BBC journalists Scott Reeves, June Woolerton and Jon Wright - detail the events, both personal and private, that defined the enduring legacy of a monarch who devoted herself to her country and people.
